A valuable piece in each museum participating in the Museums Night event will be cloth-covered on May 16 , the date of the event, to protest the precarious state of exhibition spaces in the country. Each museum has the freedom to choose which item in their patrimony they will cover and the National Network of Museums in Romania will make a recommendation to member institutions.

This year’s edition of the event will see museums in Iasi and Galati joining as well as the Museum of the Central Bank of Romania participating for the first time.
